Conclusion
• The TSQ Quantum XLS Ultra GC-MS/MS is a highly
sensitive and selective system applicable to dioxins
and furans analysis in a range of environmental sample
types and generates results that perform within current
in-house QC criteria.
• Some differences arise in the calculated concentration
between the GC-MS/MS and GC-HRMS analysis.
These are thought to be related to the differences in the
selectivity mechanism of each system.
• GC-MS/MS applied to PCDD/Fs still allows for full
isotope dilution quantitation as currently used by
GC-HRMS systems. TargetQuan 3 software can be
used with the TSQ Quantum XLS Ultra to provide
the specific calculations required.
• The Thermo Scientific
™
Dionex
™
ASE
™
Accelerated
Solvent Extractor system allows for unattended,
efficient extractions from all samples and enabled
recoveries well within QC criteria.
